Thanksgiving
Our family Thanksgiving
Today we’re getting ready for Thanksgiving — it’s always on the fourth Thursday of November. Thanksgiving is a kind of harvest festival. It’s a very old tradition here in the USA. It’s a special day and people don’t usually go to work.
Families always spend the day together, so my big sister is coming home from college this evening. At the moment my dad is decorating the house and my mum is making a pumpkin pie. Tomorrow we’re having the big traditional Thanksgiving dinner with roast turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce. It’s always delicious! Then tomorrow afternoon we’re visiting our cousins to give them presents.
Did you know that people eat 46 million turkeys here in the USA every Thanksgiving? But every year one of those turkeys is really lucky. It doesn’t die because it receives an official pardon I from the American president. The president’s turkey usually goes to live on a farm in Virginia, but this year’s lucky turkey is moving to Disneyland!
